CEF programme: 7 billion euros available to improve European transport infrastructure

CEF programme: 7 billion euros available to improve European transport infrastructure

The CEF Transport programme has a clear objective: to finance projects aimed at creating, modernising and improving European transport infrastructures. From 17 September to 19 January 2022, a new call for proposals will be launched through this programme, with a budget of €7 billion.

On this occasion, the amount of funding for each project varies depending on the topic. However, in general terms, financial support will not exceed 30% for works and investments, and 50% for studies. In exceptional cases, however, funding could amount up to 70% or 85%.

KAILA has updated its database and you can now search where your transport project fits in the big picture.

These are the published CEF calls for proposals and their dates:
